Kagome groaned as she rolled over. She reached out a hand towards the nightstand and let it unceremoniously land on it. "Ow…" she mumbled into her pillow. Sleepily, she lifted her head, and looked at the small table. Where was her alarm clock? A memory started playing in her head like a film. She gave another small groan and looked across the room. Her alarm clock was on the ground, pieces surrounding it.

Kagome puffed out her cheeks in annoyance (and her own stupidity), while she made a mental note to buy an alarm clock, along with the lock for her door. She picked her cell phone and flipped it open. She then swiftly flipped it back close. Gods, the stupid cell phone nearly blinded her. She flipped it back open; this time making sure she looked away for a couple of seconds. With a quick glance, she saw it was 2:34 in the afternoon. She let her cell phone fall to the night stand and she dragged her hand back under the covers.

She rolled over and clenched her eyes shut. Light was pouring in from her window, right onto her face. She rolled back over, her face smashed into her pillow again. She lay there, trying to fall back to sleep. Then, she heard the door open. Kagome could easily hear the creak of the hardwood floor as somebody…or something….walk across the floor.

Then, somebody pounced on her bed, inches away from landing on her. "Come on, Kagome, wake up!"

Kagome looked up and glared at Sango, who was smiling cheesily. Kagome gave a small growl at the cheerful girl and asked, "Why are you so happy?"

Sango's smile grew and she said, "Cause you're going shopping with me!" Kagome smiled.

Kagome sighed as she dumped the many bags in her hands on the bed. They had gone shopping and had a fun time. Plus, she had finally got an alarm clock (an indestructible one) and a lock. She had also gotten a job at a café called The Bean. Koharu, a friend of Sango's, owned the place and had needed a new person to work the cash register. Kagome had gladly accepted the job.

They had met Kouga there…That had been an interesting encounter…

Kagome and Sango walked out of the store, talking and laughing. "Well," Sango continued, "I really do hate living with him. I mean he is such a pervert. But you have to admit he is cute…very cute."

"Aw," Kagome cooed, "you know you two would actually make such a cute couple." Sango looked away and blushed.

Kagome started laughing again until she felt two arms wrap around her waist. Kagome immediately turned around and smacked the person. Her hand was deftly caught in a large calloused hand. She looked up and saw that is was Kouga. He smiled at her and opened his mouth to speak when his ear was grabbed by a manicured hand.

"Kouga, you really got to learn not to go around grabbing random girls and hugging them." It was girl who had grabbed his ear. Her red hair was pulled into pigtails and her green eyes had been shooting daggers at Kouga. The girl had then dragged Kouga away, ignoring his yelps of pain. The weird thing, though, was Kouga and the girl both had…tails…wolf tails.

When Kagome had asked about it later, she had found out the girl was Kouga's roommate. And that they (Kouga and his roommate) were both wolf demons. Well, at least it explained the tails…but it still didn't explain Kouga's weirdness. When Kagome had said that Sango had laughed and reminded her that the apartment building they lived in were filled with weirdoes.

Kagome sighed and started pulling out various things from the bags. Kagome had also found out that Sango liked Miroku. Sango really didn't say it outright, but it was as plain as day. And day was pretty plain. Kagome had really become great friends with Sango during the two day period she had known her.

CRASH! Kagome spun around and glared at the door which had been flung open. Miroku rushed in and cowered behind her. "Please, Sango, don't hurt meeeeee…"he whined.

Sango followed seconds later and glared at Miroku. "If you ever touch my ass again Miroku, I swear I will cut off something really, really, important to you."

To prove her point, Sango lifted up her hand and the knife she held sparkled lethally. Miroku whimpered behind Kagome at the sight of it. "Sango, don't kill him." They turned back to the doorway, where Inuyasha was standing. Sango glared at him, while Miroku relaxed a bit. "I really don't want to wash blood off the walls, so do it somewhere else."

Sango turned back to Miroku, grinning evilly. Kagome sighed and held out her hand. "Sango, give me the knife." Sango growled at her and Kagome growled right back. Sango raised an eyebrow at Kagome, while the latter reached out and grabbed the knife. Miroku looked grateful towards Kagome and wrapped his arms around her in a hug.

A second later, Kagome pushed Miroku off her and looked at Sango. "Kill him, Sango." Sango looked at where Miroku was and saw that he was gone. She then raced out the door. Kagome raised an eyebrow at Inuyasha and made a motion towards the door. "Get out." Inuyasha didn't move from his place at the doorway.

"No."

"Out."

"No."

"Out."

"No."

"Out."

"Do you think my answer is going to change? No."

Kagome gave a frustrated shriek and threw the knife at him. She quickly gasped and covered her eyes. She did not just do that…She peered through her fingers, only to see Inuyasha still leaning against the doorway, balancing the knife on the tip of his finger. Her arms dropped and she stared at him, speechless. "I know I'm sexy, but do you really have to stare? Oh and thanks for my knife back." He gave her a smug smirk and walked nonchalantly out the door.

The slam of her door echoed throughout the apartment. "YOU JERK!"
